@Indwelling Spirit Creations 777 it really depends, idk if you know but usually in gyms there’s a lot of yelling and cheering, it’s really really helpful on tough days. If she really thought it was an issue, she would tell them to stop. Regardless, she’s a professional gymnast that knows how to block it out. Gabby Douglass’ old coach Chow used to make the girls scream/cheer at her while doing her routines to simulate real competitions, when there are wayyy larger crowds that are screaming constantly. Just thought you should know!

Most of the time they show the gymnasts walking around after a routine and talking about them instead of showing other routines. The real problem is that they tell us the same info each time.

I love how open and real Myk is being! Not every day is your best, and you have to push through the bad ones to reach your goals. Keep pushing girl! That bar routine is going to kill at trials!

Just consider this a warm-up for marriage. You woke up late, have to get the kids to school, get yourself to work, do 8+ hours there, come home - make dinner, dishes, homework, baths etc. and then your HUSBAND wants to perform your WIFELY DUTIES, even though you're exhausted and hurt everywhere. You're up until midnight with him, 1 of your kids has just wet the bed, you finally get to sleep around 1 am, and you have to be up again the next day at 6 am to start it all over again....... and this is a 'good' day!! You're welcome!

What a supportive gym you train at. No jealousy, just pure support and cheering. Every gym I have been to whenever there was somebody at elite or beyond level people would sneer at that athlete. It would be a fun video to see you coach them off-season! See what kind of ambitions they have and your professional look at how far they are and most of all just have pure fun with gymnastics, no pressure no competition on the horizon just fun!

Your gonna crush trials!!! Have faith in yourself! You’ve got this 🔥🥇🔥 Ps. The girl that said you can do this when you were trying to jump to the bar was hilarious 😂😂😂

Your dance on floor is so much more fluid and graceful when you aren't under the scrutiny of the judges and you're a little tired...though you may lack some amplitude and extension the arms and body just flow so much easier, your torso moves and isn't so rigid!!! You CAN dance you just have to forget what critics say and feel the music through all your body and project like an actor you love for gymnastics!!!

Dang girl you look so much stronger on bars!! You pushed thru the pain, (weakness leaving the body) look very put together! Because of you my youngest daughter Mikayla started gymnastics again after 2 years out fighting illness! She was told 6 mo ago she would never be able to do gymnastics again, but she looks up to u so so much you inspired her to push hard thru PT and is back in the gym again! 🥲 MOM, IF MIK CAN DO IT I CAN DO IT". Thank you for the amazing example you set thru your courage, pain, strength and tears. U r an inspiration!! We are so proud of you here (our gym is called Levitate) and my oldest daughter Lyric is on her way to college and doing gymnastics there as well (she was out for 6 mo w bone spur in foot and fractured calcaneous) was going to give up but has watched your entire channel, & made the decision (after you kicked ass the 2nd day of last competition) to start training again. She was in the gym Monday!! THANK YOU FOR MAKING A DIFFERENCE WITH EVERY VIDEO U POST! We know u have a place on the Olympic team! YOU DESERVE IT! 💜💯

I am with you Myk. Praying for your success (and for your body to heal). You may be tired, but you are looking fabulous. You got this girl! God bless you, Jonas, and Melo.

Knowing how hard each one of these elements are, I'm always amazed at how MyKayla kept going back and doing it over and over and over. My body ached just watching her do it. People who think this sport is easy need to watch these videos to truly understand how long it takes to train these skills, even for elites who know the skills and have to practice them over and over. I love her determination.

Also, as someone who was a L10 in the 90s and got recruited to the D1 championship track team as a PVer, then trained for 2004 with several teammates who were amazing enough to go, the mental game is way more difficult than the physical. When you get out at trials, just put it all out there and go out and let your body do it’s thing. I see it in you that you have this. DO NOT let doubt or anyone else’s words creep in there. YOU GOT THIS!

For being tired, I think you still looked really good. It seems like it’s all coming together at the right time. I know you got this!

Love your comment

Firstly I’m a huge fan, but just wanted to give some suggestions that can increase your scores and make you more competitive for that Olympic team spot. To increase your scores, maybe consider the 1/1 double layout instead of the moors on floor because the moors gets so many deductions with a piked hip angle, knees bent and low chest on the landing. You have the power to easily do a super clean chuso which would increase your scores immensely (lose 0.1 in difficulty but gain 0.5+ in execution). Also the 3/2 to 3/1 on floor is great, it would be +0.2 in difficultly and eliminate the 0.1-0.3 step that usually comes after the 5/2. Also consider disconnecting the full pirouette on bars from the dismount. The 0.1 connection value isn’t worth the 0.3 deduction for the angle you usually finish the pirouette. Additionally, if it is the full pirouette instead of the hip circle full pirouette, there is no connection bonus from my knowledge. This means you are going for a connection that is all risk (the angle that the pirouette is finishing from vertical) and no gain. I think if you were to focus on the full pirouette alone (either the hip full or just full pirouette) it would increase your chance of ending in the vertical position and reducing your deductions. Vault looks great, if jade hadn’t secured her specialist spot through the World Cup, that spot would be yours and you’d be medaling at the Olympics! Hopefully you stick around for worlds cause you could definitely medal in multiple events. Goodluckk!
